Regardless of the type of water heater that is in your home, it is an inevitability that you will experience some kind of issues with it. Usually, this is in the form of no hot water coming out of your faucets or shower. This can be caused by a few different things. In the colder months, it might not be an issue with your water heater. It could be because of frozen pipes due to extremely low temperatures. In that case, you will want to give us a call as frozen pipes could definitely leak or burst and then you are not only left with exploded pipes but a large amount of water damage to worry about.

Checking this is a relatively easy thing to do and something that you can do yourself if you have even a little bit of experience with it.

Sometimes, though, your water heater could be experiencing issues that don’t have to do with the actual heating of your water. You might notice that the water coming out of your faucets has a rotten egg smell or that it is discolored in some way. This is typically due to either bacteria buildup or pipe corrosion.

Another very common issue is a leak around the base of the water heater. Leaks are a pain in general as they can create water damage if left unchecked and if they can reach the areas surrounding your hot water heater. A little leak can do a lot of damage if left unchecked. If you have a leaky pipe attached to your water heater, make sure you turn the water off immediately to prevent further water damage.
